Weekend Football Recap

It's the first weekend of the college football season and it was full of excitement:
  • Kent State player recovering a punt that touched the receiving team (Towson) and for some reason being pursued and tackled by the Towson player 58 yards later - he only had 7 yards for touchdown in the other direction.  Fortunately, it's college football and you can 't advance a muffed punt.  It was entertaining and will cause him a lot of grief this weekend from his family and friends and I am sure the nickname of "Wrong Way" Parker.

  • What an interception that nobody saw - UCONN v UMass

  • Link To The Best College Gameday Signs From Saturday
    • WV sign - you can't run from the truth - that's not going to die anytime soon is it - I will be honest and say that I thought it was funny - now burn it with your sofa
  • Funniest Picture I Saw From 1st Weekend Of College Football (not sure where it came originally but retweeted by @eyeofcfb from @_blakeeddins):  Miss St Entrance


If you're not laughing at this picture you might want to go see a doctor.
  • Anybody looking for a job?  I hear Houston is hiring...I am pretty sure the record for shortest term of offensive coordinator has been set - 1 game.  He was fired with cause - losing to Texas State, 1st FBS game 30 -13.
SC vs Vandy
  • Survived the upset bid...1st week SEC road game - any kind of victory is accepted; gutsy performance by Shaw - he will  need to learn to slide to avoid the big hits
Clemson Vs Auburn
  • Road(Neutral Field) SEC win 1st week of season - (see SC vs Vandy) I'll take it.  AU isn't Elon or Sister Mary's School of the Blind but I also realize they are not Alabama (who is - not Michigan) - we left Atlanta 1-0 and that's all that matters.
  • Hats off to Dabo and staff for being prepared
  • Andre Ellington - beast
  • OL was better than expected but Taji still had to run for his life a couple of times
  • Nuk (Sammy Who) is Sammy v2.0
  • Too many dropped passes that hit receivers in hands or numbers
  • Too many field goals in red zone - need touchdowns
  • Defense was better than expected
    • Kept them out of end zone except for busted coverage - still room for improvement
    • better pass coverage on deep middle of field or anything deep

Ellington Going Beast Mode:




Game Highlights:


Clemson Vs Ball State
  • Should be interesting - Two of the top offensive play from wk 1 squaring off
    • Clemson - 87
    • Ball State - 96
Helmet Rule

I understand the new rule but now I feel like they are going to have put a rule in for defensive players that are trying to rip a players helmet off.  If I were a defensive coach, don't cross the line (it's what we do in life - give me a limit and I will push as close as I can without crossing the line) but if you can get quarterbacks helmet off then do so.  It's almost like in wrestling when win or lose you try to unmask the masked man so everyone will know who is behind the mask.  

More later in the week...

PS - Are you still laughing at the Miss St entrance fail?  I still am!
